Watching the vid with the mayors and reps of these cities and states saying they won't allow their police to act makes me wonder what the police think? I'd like to see a response from a Police Union or Federation.
If I was a cop there I'd be sickened.
It sounds corrupt to hamstring the police and keep them to the elites discretion and off the street.
Of course I am no expert on the machinations of US police and troopers being an ex Aussie cop. Our police federations stand up to the state and federal leaders if they dictate how the sworn should act or inact as long as it within the bounds of the law. For the law to be changed it needs an Act of Parliament such is the 'separation of powers'.
1/. The Parliament
2/. The judiciary
3/. Police
But for the leaders to say "We won't allow 'our' police to do this seems like Loki lecturing the Hulk.
My thoughts - could be wrong.
